"I can't believe we graduated!" Adelaine exclaimed.
Lee grinned and wrapped his arm around Adelaine's waist as their parents walked over to congratulate them.
"I can't believe my little boy graduated," Mrs. Jordan sobbed.
A blush formed over Lee's dark features at his mum's remark as Adelaine giggled.
"This is our graduation present to the two of you, we bought you a starter house."
Adelaine and Lee looked shocked at their parents. Sure, they had been dating for three years but they never expected their parents to buy them a house.
"It's quite small just enough for two people." Mrs. Jordan said, sobering up.
"Thanks." the couple thanked their parents.
"You're welcome."
Adelaine and Lee couldn't wait to see the house. They didn't have to wait long.
It was a few days later, they were looking at the house. It was quite small with brown walls. It came with two furnished bedrooms and one and half bathrooms a living room and a kitchen.
"I doubt we're ever going to use the second bedroom," Lee chuckled.
Adelaine chuckled as well and said. "I think so too."
"How about we break in the bed?" Lee smirked, seductively at his girlfriend of just over three years.
"Lee, we haven't even moved in yet and you want to snog and mess up the bed."
He grumbled in response, Adelaine giggled and said. "I promise you'll get your wish when we move in."
"Can't wait."
Adelaine was at St. Mungos with Leslie who was now four months pregnant and showing. Part of her still couldn't believe her friend was pregnant with Gilderoy Lockhart's baby. Speaking of their former professor, he was walking their way.
She hadn't interacted with him since their fourth year and that was as a professor and student so needless to say it was awkward now that he was dating Leslie and the father of her baby.
"Leslie Hopkins!" the medi-witch yelled.
She stood up and Gilderoy took her hand and led her back to the exam room. It feels weird to call him by his first name.
Adelaine started reading one of the magazines that was on the table next to her while she waited.
"Merlin, I can't believe we're having a baby girl!" Leslie said excitedly as they walked out.
"So, a baby girl?"
Leslie nodded and asked. "How would you like to be god-mother?"
"I'd be honored." Adelaine said.
Leslie smiled. She said goodbye to her friend and apparated back to her house.
It was a few days later, Adelaine and Lee were now moving in their house with Chance's, Fred, George's and surprisingly Gilderoy's help. The twins got along with Chance pretty well. She's never going to get used to calling Professor Lockhart by his first name.
The latter was probably just trying to get on Adelaine 's good side because she still didn't really like him.
"Explain to us why our former Defense teacher who is a complete buffoon is helping you two move in," Fred remarked, bluntly.
"He's not as bad once you get know him," Adelaine insisted.
"And how have you gotten to know him, love?" Lee asked, confused at his girlfriend.
Adelaine sighed and said. "He's dating Leslie and he's the father of her baby."
"Come again."
"Leslie is pregnant with his baby," Adelaine told them.
The boys nodded, Lee spoke first and said. "For your sake, love. I'll try and get to know him better. He is helping us move in after all."
"Thanks Lee," Adelaine smiled at her boyfriend lovingly.
"No problem, love," Lee said, dropping a kiss on her cheek.
Fred chuckled and said. "Bloody hell, you're whipped."
"I'd gladly admit that."
They continued moving in and Lee got along with Gilderoy.
It was now later that night, Adelaine and Lee were getting ready for bed.
"You said we would break in the bed once we moved in," Lee said, impatiently.
"I'm coming, Mr. Insatiable," Adelaine giggled.
"Not fast enough."
Adelaine walked out of the bathroom and kissed Lee. He pulled her down into his lap and deepened the kiss.
"Bloody hell, I love you."
"I love you too."
Lee's hands eventually found their way under Adelaine's shirt and rubbed her soft skin.
"This is as far as you will get until we're married," Adelaine said, pulling away when it was getting very passionate.
"You're worth the wait, love."
Adelaine grinned and wrapped her arms around her boyfriend's half-naked torso.
"You know I've been thinking about going to America to visit my mum's family," Lee said, twirling a piece of her hair around his finger, absentmindedly.
"That sounds like a good idea."
Lee said. "It's like what my dad did after his graduation he went to America and met my mum on the way and fell in love. Except I already a beautiful girlfriend who I'm madly in love with."
"Or as Fred and George like to say, you're whipped," Adelaine giggled, looking up at her boyfriend.
"That I am, would you like to come to America with me? You'll get to meet them although they've already practically met you by proxy since I talk about you a lot in my letters," Lee chuckled his chest rumbling under Adelaine.
"I'd be happy to, Paddy," Adelaine smiled.
Lee grinned happily and kissed her temple. The couple fell asleep blissfully.
